“How are jokes created? Sit and compose? - No, they first compose, and then sit down.
The Soviet period has become the golden age of a political joke. It was possible to pay for the joke, freedom, and sometimes life, but they were retold everywhere: at home and at work, in smokers and lines, face to face and in large companies. The question Have you heard a new joke? He became almost a greeting - any noticeable event instantly caused dozens of jokes, which in a matter of days flying through the whole union.
The book "mustache and eyebrows" contains 1300 jokes popular in Soviet times, found in the diaries of contemporaries, memoirs, denunciations, and certificates of special services. This meeting can tell about the Soviet era no less than a textbook on the history of the USSR: Soviet jokes are much more true than Soviet newspapers. Now jokes have given way to political memes that people send each other in messengers. However, both memes and jokes work the same way - they help people find a common language and cope with state pressure and idiocy of everyday life
